Champions League tonight, RB Leipzig host PSV. This game has the feel of a match where the home side will have to be the one pressing forward, because based on the expected pattern of play, RB Leipzig should dominate possession and push the game up into the opponent's half, while PSV are good at waiting for their moment and breaking quickly when they get the ball. RB Leipzig just thrashed their league opponents 6-0 in their last match, but before that they had both a 1-4 defeat in the cup and a 0-2 loss lingering in the same period. The overall picture is a team that scores plenty but still has days when the defence falls apart. As for PSV, they come in unbeaten in the league for many matches, and their last game was a comfortable 2-0 win, but their defence has not been solid in every game either, especially in the second half where they concede more often than in the first. If RB Leipzig get the first goal, the game should flow in one direction, because PSV will have to open up and trade blows, which suits the home side's attack that thrives on sustained pressure. But if the first goal is hard to come by, the game could drag on and PSV will get chances to counter from the spaces left by RB Leipzig pushing high. So this game depends on how quickly the home side can turn their possession advantage into goals.
